There was justice Thursday for a 16-month-old boy shot dead in his stroller in Brooklyn two years ago, and no thanks to the thug dad who abandoned him both on the street and, earlier this week, in court.

The two men on trial for shooting tiny Antiq Hennis on a Brownsville street — while aiming for his father — were convicted Thursday afternoon despite the dad failing to show up and testify in his own baby’s murder.

A jury found Daquan Breland, 25, of Brownsville, guilty of second-degree murder. Co-defendant Daquan Wright, 21, of East New York, was found guilty of the top charge against him, criminal possession of a weapon, for handing his friend the gun right before the shooting.

The father, Anthony Hennis, went into hiding rather than come to court, officials said.

That gave the defense an opening to suggest that maybe the dad had been the killer, a ploy that ultimately didn’t work.

Assistant District Attorney Howard Jackson constructed a winning case without the father, relying instead on eyewitness and confession testimony and other evidence.

“The tragic death of this innocent baby is an example of the devastation gun violence can wreck on our communities,” Brooklyn DA Ken Thompson said after the verdict.

“These defendants showed utter disregard for human life and we will be asking that each of them receives the maximum sentence.”

Breland, the shooter, faces a maximum of 25 years to life; Wright faces a maximum of 15 years.
